      You run the course one boat at a time against the clock ; kinda' like the straightlines but on the oval course.

      I'll run the Delta Force in P-Mono & the Drifter in P- Offshore. Will bring the Titan as a backup in case......

              Actually, it's one boat at a time against the clock, so my crappy driving won't create too much havoc, although yesterday a fellow FE guy [ Will] hit what we surmised was a semi-submerged turtle & tore the rudder off his boat !

                        re :

                        Hookedup; here's the internals, the batts are now way further back; the cg needs to be way rearward to keep the front up in the turns. It's a 33 ".
